Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Slide Open Operation
When the moon roof control switch is kept pressed to OPEN position for approximately 0.3 seconds or longer (limit switch No. 1 off, limit switch No. 2 on), a signal is input from the moon roof control switch terminal No. 5 to moon roof control ECU terminal No. 9. See WIRING DIAGRAMSΒ . This activates the moon roof control ECU and rotates the motor to open the moon roof automatically. Then, when the limit switch No. 1 is turned on and then turned off again, the pulse signal sent from the Hall IC activates the moon roof control ECU, and determines that the moon roof is fully open, and stops the motor. If other operation switch or the open switch is operated while the moon roof is being opened, the moon roof control ECU is activated to stop the moon roof operation. In addition, when the moon roof is tilted up, the slide open operation does not function.
